Question

What poetic device is used in these lines from "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" by T. S. Eliot?

Answer 1

The correct answer is Imagery.

Eliot, differently to authors of his time, uses imagery quite often in his works. In these lines, he mentions arms, and perfume, with references to bracelets and hair, in order to refer to a group of women, who are reoccurring in the poem, while giving the reader a disconnected impression of them.
